The NUB Cameroon Cigars are the brainchild of former Oliva Cigar Co. sales rep Sam Leccia. NUB is a tremendously popular line of cigars and it is easy to see why. After learning from the Oliva family how cigars are rolled in Esteli, Nicaragua, Sam created NUB with the assistance of his former employer. NUB cigars are hand rolled by the Oliva Cigar Co and it is a concept that seeks to deliver only that most enjoyable part of the cigar. The idea for the NUB came from the theory that a cigar finds its ?sweet spot? at the 3.5 to 4 inch point. All NUB cigars must exist within this window. No NUB is longer than 4 inches. Further adding to this complex theory, the ring gauges range from 56-66. The result is a range of smokes that have the same amount of tobacco as any Churchill or even Presidente. Unbelievably, they also smoke as long. NUB uses a blend of Nicaraguan filler and binder and is available in an African Cameroon wrapper. This wrapper has a distinct flavor and character. The Cameroon wrapper is thin and toothy, yet it delivers a medium bodied smoke that is rich with notes of cedar and coffee.
